Compassion in Action

Many people have compassionate hearts, but putting that compassion in action takes things to a whole new level. Compassion International, one of the world's leading charitable organizations, offers people all over the world the opportunity to put their compassion in action through sponsorship.

Sponsorsing a child through Compassion gives you the opportunity to form a personal relationship with a child in poverty. This relationship will be life-changing for your child, and maybe even for you. When you sponsor a child, you put your compassion in action in a way that will impact you and your child forever.

If you already sponsor a child, one of the best ways to see Compassion in action is to go on a sponsor tour. On a sponsor tour, you will meet your child and visit a child development center. In between ministry activities with the children, you will learn more about how Compassion's ministry works to make a lasting difference in the life of every Compassion child.

Even if you cannot go on a sponsor tour, you can still see Compassion in action. On our web site, sponsors share their sponsor tour experiences through blogs, video and photo slide shows. You can see a vivid portrait of poverty and Compassion in action by reading one of the many sponsor tour blogs.

Once you see Compassion in action — whether it be virtual or first-hand — you'll be inspired by the personal stories you encounter. You will undoubtedly want to share your love, prayers and support with a child in need by sponsoring a child today.
